While conspiracy rattled Deepwater during last
year’s Scarecrow and Wool Festival following the mysterious
disappearance and alleged kidnapping of overstuffed local authority Constable Scarecrow, festival coordinator Julie Watt said the mystery has not hindered the 2014 festival promising to top last year.

While
Mrs Watt said she was disappointed to report that Constable Scarecrow’s
disappearance remains largely unsolved, she will be coordinating a
crack team of scarecrows for the coming festival on the lookout for any
attempt at renewed foul play.

As the
popular regional event draws near, festival committee members are
putting the final touches on a jam-packed schedule showcasing a full
contingent of singers and live entertainment acts anticipating a
non-stop entertainment experience throughout the festival.

With
all new acts coming to this year’s festival Mrs Watt said the festival
has been growing consistently over previous years, drawing attendees
from across the region and the state.

“It’s getting bigger and bigger,” she said.

With
attractions highlighting the best in local and regional industry and
produce, Deepwater is gearing up for the festive season set to fall on
Halloween. The inaugural Festival Ball at the Deepwater School of Arts
will be a highlight of the event, which runs from Friday evening,
October 31 from 5-10pm and all day Saturday, November 1, at the
Deepwater Oval.
